We have some folks here in Europe playing with an accelerometer project based on MC9S08QG8 and want to add an lcd. Have a nokia 6100 type display from www.sparkfun.com but looking through all the published code from nd sparkfuns displays i see they tend to use an alternate MCU device which can do 9 bit SPI.
Would like to use the SPI bus for the device, as it would leave it open to add an MMC card as well, ala lcd slide show badge in April.
Anybody now if 9bit SPI can be done using the MC9S08 ?
The hardware SPI of 9S08QG8 is limited to 8-bit transfers.
But given that SPI is such an easy protocol to implement in software I don't see where implementing any variation of it (such as the 9-bit one) would be too much trouble.
